Today we recognize International Fire Fighters Day across this country and around the world in honor of those who answer the call.
Firefighting isn’t about recognition it’s about responsibility. Long hours, tough conditions, and doing more with less, all while putting others before yourself.
Across the fire service, departments are facing real challenges like staffing shortages, rising apparatus costs, and extended delivery times that impact readiness. The IAFF continues to advocate for proper staffing, critical funding, and the resources firefighters need to do the job safely and effectively.
Firefighters will always show up but it’s time the support matches the sacrifice.

Last night at 20:17 Engine 1, Engine 3, Ladder 1 and Utility 2 were dispatched to Princeton Ave on the Southside for the report of a dwelling fire with possible entrapment. Utility 2 arrived on scene with fire and smoke showing from the second floor, he then requested the 2nd alarm which brought in Engine 6, Engine 9 and Ladder 2. Engine 1 made an interior fire attack and Ladder 1 did a primary search of the dwelling, prompting the rescue of one victim. Shortly after the rescue was made the Assistant Chief on scene requested the 3rd alarm which brought in Engine 5 to the scene and a couple of units from the City of Allentown to cover Bethlehem while the BFD initiated the recall process of bringing in off duty personnel to respond to calls.

Your Bethlehem firefighters of Local 735 visited the Old York Senior Center for a fire safety talk. Moments like this go beyond the job, they build trust, connection, and a sense of belonging. It’s about showing up for people, especially those who may need it most, and reminding them they’re not forgotten.
Community isn’t built during emergencies… it’s built in moments like these. And that’s something worth recognizing.#community #IAFF #PPFFA #Local735 #staffingmatters 🚒🇺🇸 ... See MoreSee Less
